To manage connected devices (Traffic control)
By default, traffic control is disabled, which means that all traffic is allowed.
With the Traffic control function you can get an overview of devices connected locally to your
EXPLORER 540 and control which devices you want to connect. You can also select whether or
not they should be allowed to use the BGAN network. Note that the available settings depend
on whether or not you are logged in as administrator.
Traffic control (Non-administrator user)
To set up traffic control, do as follows:
1. In the Control panel
, click Traffic control.
A list of connected and added devices appears.
2. Click your connected device to see MAC address and IP address and to change the name
or block/allow the use of BGAN network. See the next section.
To block BGAN traffic or edit the name for your device
1. In the Traffic control page, click your connected device.
The page shows the name, MAC address, IP address and traffic rule for the device.
2. Select Block BGAN traffic, if you want to deny access to the BGAN network for your
device.
Note
You can only change these settings if traffic control is enabled. If the administrator
has disabled traffic control, all traffic is allowed.
Note
If it is already blocked by the administrator, this setting is not editable.
